[QUOTE="trentonjoe, post: 6635605, member: 304"] I took many of your ideas in making this.... It's a rough draft, I am sure there are some grammar issues but I think it makes sense. Mostly. At least to me..... The Domain of Ftttsz is a small yet infinite sub plane in the Elemental Plane of Fire. It is not known by many scholars, or more accurately is incorrectly labeled as merely a sub-section of the larger Elemental Plane, because of its physical similarity with the rest of the plane. Ftttsz is ruled by Ignacia, the 1st brightest flame of Ftttsz. Ignacia is a contemplative elemental that spends much of its time in eternal meditation. Ignacia demands gifts from his vassals in the form of slow burning materials. It rarely leaves its flame pit and is often in a sour mood when forced to. Ftttsz ultimate goal is to gain a cult of worshippers and ascend to godhood. S’Zans is the 2nd brightest flame of Ftttsz and the hands on, de facto ruler. S’Zans is driven by the need to expand. He wishes to expand his own massive size, his area of control, and the size of the domain of Ftttsz. S’Zans is quick to act and a very poor military leader. Only his sheer personal power keeps his opponents from attacking him and seizing his brightness. S’Zans acts as if he is the leader of Ftttsz but is down right terrified of Ignacia and always pays the best tributes. Ena is the next most influential flame of Ftttsz. Ena is nearly as large as S’Zans and close to four times as intelligent. While Ignacia and S’Zans look to grow, Ena looks to destroy. Luckily for the rest of the sentient beings in the multiverse, Ena is focused on destroying water creatures. She has a particularly disdain for water elementals, cults who worship water deities, dolphins and octopuses. Ena is a brilliant tactician and believes her goal of destroying all water based life will be met a puff of steam at a time. Ena has given up trying to convince S’zans to join her fight but is willing to aid her superior when he asks her to lead a flame vs water opponents to further his aims. Aine is the fourth brightest flame of Fttsz. The most <insert adjective> of the bright flames Aine uses her powers to change the multiverse and create. Aine is the smallest of the bright flames and the only one without a home. Aine’s lastest plan seems to change on a whim to outside observers but always deal with the destruction of something in order to create something new and better. Aine thinks long term (which frustrates mortals she deals with) and often has more than one pot in the fire. She thinks nothing of laying waste to a forest that is a home to tens of thousands if she thinks it will regrow in a millennia or three. Neci is the fire of passion. His flame while averaging the 5th brightest flame of Ftttsz is the only one of the bright flame that can actually burn brighter than his superiors, all but Ignacia. Neci is very charismatic (although many would say he has sulfur between his sparks) and is the most likely of the brightest flames to deal with mortals.

The other flames of Fttsz don’t like dealing with him. They often feel manipulated by him. Arati is the most altruistic of the bright flames. Once much brighter than the 6th brightest flame of Ftttsz, it has given away much of its power to those who lived without fire. Arati gives fires to those who live in darkness, the cold, or ignorance. Many sentient creatures owe their civilizations to the gifts of Arati. Arati doesn’t always differentiate between those who want or can use fire and has been known to provide to much fire to some (failed) life forms. And Fszzzt, the seventh brightest flame of Ftttsz.
